migrationDir

migrate.layout migrationDir string "directory_name"

Description

This environment variable works only in Layout MXL, as part of the assisted custom layout design migration flow. It specifies the initial path to the working directory in which the captured source data must be stored. Changes to the UI do not change environment variable. The target layout references this location for applying the captured source data.

If migrationDir is set to the current working directory, the value is automatically updated to "/migrate_reuse_<libName>" when initializing the UI. This is because using the current working directory is not recommended.

The default value is ".", which refers to "/migrate_reuse_<libName>".
